hard bedsteep stairs
The bed was too hard, even with that topper thing. i really did not sleep well. There were steep stairs going to the top floor, and they were a problem when i was carrying my luggage. It was a struggle. my single room felt really tiny.

The breakfast was lovely. I especially enjoyed the avocado with eggs. The hotel has a central location near main attractions (I visited the cathedral).
I noticed the carpets in the passages were a little dirty in places.
